Thanks Matt!

It would be interesting to see (a) how much in curation bot votes you would get added for say, $100 of bidbot votes, and (b) how long they would continue to upvote.

My guess is (a) only a marginal amount, probably a few dollars, since they have to make x16 or maybe even x64 for high curation returns and (b) only a fairly short period - there must be some regular updating to make sure they're hitting the desired returns.

Getting on voting lists from accounts that vote automatically on a regular set of authors might be a bigger win. Some of those seem to continue forever. Maybe that's something I'll investigate at some point!
